Chapter 122: Chapter 121: Methods

Seeing that Xiong Kang did not reply to him, Lu Zixun ran to Guo Xin’er’s side.

He looked up and asked, "Miss Guo Xin, may I ask how many of the guests attending this banquet you are acquainted with?"

She extended her hand and held Lu Zixun in her arms.

Guo Xin’er thought carefully for a moment, "It seems they are all nobles and dignitaries from Chunhua City, the wealthy and influential type."

Hearing this, both Lu Zixun and Xiong Kang felt a sudden chill in their hearts, as they seemed to have pinpointed the crux of the issue.

For Lu Zixun, the Mutated Array was just an unexpected boon.

If their guess about the Ye Family’s true intentions was correct, it must be these people they were targeting.

Blood Worm...

This Abnormal Creature that Lu Zixun had overlooked for a long time, must be the Ye Family’s main method of control.

Originally thinking that since Yue Sichen had left Chunhua City for the Crimson Land, the Blood Worms should not be able to cause much trouble.

Now it seemed, the issue was not that simple.

Ye Xun also appeared to be a High-level Blood Worm, and with the Ye Family’s help, becoming the new Queen-level Abnormal Creature seemed not so strange.

Thinking of this, Lu Zixun felt a wave of headache, and he shook his head looking at Xiong Kang, "This matter might not be that simple, Ye Changming is preparing to manipulate from a human level."

"We had considered this point before."

Rubbing his temples, Xiong Kang sighed, "But I hadn’t expected Ye Changming to actually dare to do it, even activating an Isolation Array... truly ruthless and mad."

Ruthless and mad?

Lu Zixun tilted his head in thought, as if realizing something, his mouth agape as he stared at Xiong Kang, "Really?"

"That’s just Ye Changming’s way of doing things, nothing is impossible."

Seeing the puzzled look in Guo Xin’er’s eyes, Xiong Kang pursed his lips and explained.

The Isolation Array, besides preventing outsiders from coming in, also ensured that what happened inside remained unknown to the outside.

And the Ye Family’s plan was not as simple as Lu Zixun had thought.

Controlling these people with Blood Worms which even sto could detect, would eventually prove futile and even expose their direct connections with Abnormal Creatures.

But by taking a different approach, staging a play themselves, controlling these figures with Blood Worms and then annihilating them all at once.

When the time came, the families of these people would first question sto.

Why not dare question the Ye Family?

Ye Changming’s infamously cold-hearted and ruthless character, if treated as an Abnormal Creature and executed, would leave no place for grieving.

Meanwhile, sto tied up by these people would have even less time to pay attention to the Ye Family.

And through this ruthless act, the Ye Family could also clear previous suspicions.

"..."

Looking at Xiong Kang in some shock, Guo Xin’er said incredulously, "Is this really Ye Changming?"

With a slightly solemn expression, Xiong Kang nodded and looked at Lu Zixun, "Orange Cat, I know you possess the ability of Invisibility, you go investigate this matter."

"Ding—Received a reliance value from Xiong Kang of +4000."

"Alright, I understand."

Aware of the gravity of the matter, Lu Zixun nodded without hesitation and walked to the door, then turned to look back at Xiong Kang, "You... be careful."

"Absolutely."

He stepped out of the room, took out the Invisibility Cloak from the System Space, and draped it over himself.

Having activated the Magnetic Field Control to hover in mid-air, Lu Zixun began investigating whether Ye Changming was as cruel and ruthless as suspected.

At this time, Xiong Kang should be looking for other STO members who had entered the winery.

If Lu Zixun wanted to contact him, he just had to press the metal badge.

Floating into the hall, Lu Zixun listened to the pounding, ear-splitting music and pressed his ears tightly against his head in annoyance.

Looking at the wildly dancing crowd in the center of the dance floor, Lu Zixun couldn’t imagine them as the dignitaries and nobles Guo Xin’er had described.

Shaking his head, Lu Zixun glanced around and did not see Ye Changming anywhere.

He only noticed a few individuals wearing the Ye Family’s medals, possibly security?

Lu Zixun couldn’t be sure.

With no findings in the hall, Lu Zixun was about to explore elsewhere when he discovered a hidden door within the bar on the left side of the hall.

A man whom Lu Zixun assumed to be security staff, surreptitiously glanced around then turned a bottle, dragging a woman through the hidden door and descending.

Approaching the bar slowly, Lu Zixun found it unguarded. Imitating the security personnel, he twisted the bottle slightly.

...

Entering the pitch-dark hidden passage and using the cat’s night vision, Lu Zixun was shocked by the scene within the passage.

Both sides of the passage, instead of storing wine, had been transformed into rows of cells.

The blood-stained tools in the cells seemed to be telling Lu Zixun something.

Gliding along the passage, Lu Zixun finally saw a living person in one of the cells.

The person, unconscious from drinking, was mumbling something on the floor.

Opening Heavenly Eye to check the person and confirmed by Heavenly Eye as human, Lu Zixun was about to break into the cell to rescue him when he heard rustling sounds nearby.

Without making any sudden moves, Lu Zixun calmly stayed in the air, observing the inside of the cell.

Just then, a Blood Worm with black stripes on its body crawled out of the ventilation duct, staring at the man in the cell for a while before suddenly jumping into the man’s hair.

Just as Lu Zixun thought the Blood Worm was about to parasitize the man, he found that the Blood Worm remained motionless.

Quietly residing in the man’s hair, it appeared to have fallen into a deep sleep.

This scene bewildered Lu Zixun, leaving him unsure of its purpose.

Feeling puzzled, Lu Zixun refrained from alerting anyone prematurely. He noted the man’s cell number and continued deeper into the passage.

As he moved along, Lu Zixun vaguely guessed what Ye Changming was planning.

Those Blood Worms with black stripes just burrowed into the hair of these drunken individuals, masquerading as hair while waiting for the right moment.

Those without stripes directly parasitized the host, then controlled the body to leave through the ventilation duct.

The move Ye Changming had made was indeed ruthless and cunning.

It would not only reestablish the Ye Family’s image of integrity but also smear STO badly.

However...

This drama orchestrated by Ye Changming himself inevitably had its loopholes.

For example, how did the Ye Family know all these people were parasitized by Abnormal Creatures?

Just as Lu Zixun was about to follow through the ventilation duct to see where these parasitized people were going,

suddenly, he heard Ye Changming’s voice: "An Abnormal Creature has entered the winery, please cooperate with the investigation. We apologize for any inconvenience caused."
